So this Calculator is incredibly useful for any trade house junkie. Not really a cheat but a good tool for anyone needing to consider buy low sell high, or anyone taking advantage of the "container" selling techniques. taking into consideration the 15% lose due to fees from the trade house, check out tpcalc.com

The site is a basic calculator that translates gold, silver, and copper. and verifies the percentage profit including the fees incurred.

Not really a cheat, but helpful. like i said :)

Enjoy!

You beat me to it :) but don't forget the android app version as well, from my kin web page:

android app:

from: https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... calculator

http://download.cnet.com/GW2-Trade-Post ... 64365.html

Description
We've all been there. You see a seemingly good deal on the Trade Post, and you would like to make a quick buck from it. But, you do not know if you'd make money reselling your item or lose money in the process.

Not anymore.

With this simple but functional calculator you will instantly be able to tell weather you'll be climbing the ladder of Guild Wars 2 riches, or throwing money down the drain.

Simply put in your desired buying and selling price, as well as the amount of items you're planning to buy and you will instantly see your profit.


----------------------------------------------------------

Feel free to email me with suggestions for this app. Since this is only the first release, I'm sure there will be features you'd like to see added.

Special thanks to http://namtar.com/gw2/tpcalc/ for giving me this idea.

Vendoring your items is more profitable at times.

AND my don't forget the FEES post:

from: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Trading_Post

Purchases on the trading post must be made using coin and there are two fees applied to sales: 5% of the asking price to list and a 10% tax on purchase.

Fee notes

The listing fee is shown before you press the submit button, but the sales tax is not shown (neither in the sales window nor in the pickup window).
Both fees are mathematically rounded, i.e. fractions less than one-half a coin are rounded down; fractions above that are rounded up.

Rounding examples

Selling one item for 29 Copper coin should generate a 1.45 Copper coin listing fee; you pay 1 Copper coin instead.
Selling another item for 31 Copper coin costs 2 Copper coin, i.e. rounded up from 1.55 Copper coin.

Losing potential earnings

Be careful not to list for so little that you would take home less than you would get by selling the item to a vendor, i.e. never sell for less than ~20% more than the item's value. For example:

An item of 88 Copper coin can be sold on the trading post for 89 Copper coin, but this results in 76 Copper coin (after deducting 9 Copper coin for a successful sale and 4 Copper coin for the listing fee).
If offered for 1 Silver coin 26 Copper coin, you would take home 1 Silver coin 7 Copper coin, 19 Copper coin more than the price the vendor offers (after paying a sales tax of 13 Copper coin, listing fee of 6 Copper coin)

====================================

think you can fore go all this if you remember the rule of thumb that to make ANY money at the TP you need to multiply the vendor price by 20% to cover all fees

my problem? I bought from cyberpowerpc, that was the problem...

since april it has been back and forth to california _5_ times, with 5 shipping days each way:(, it has just died again today since april has been up and runnning 30 days, and this old lap top can barely stream a video let alone play anything...

the research I should have done BEFORE my purchase (instead of relying on one personal recomendation:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1EDY ... PbrUA/edit

I might make a seperate topic on cyberpower in the general/off topic section

Poor guy. Yea im a big fan of just building my own as it seems to be cheaper over time. Also try this site out

http://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/

Use the links on the right for some great links on the best rated things to purchase. People also have great deals out there.

If you dont want to build a comp try this site.

http://slickdeals.net/

They have the best deals on the net always updated. For example they had an amazing dell (aka alienware) laptop with all the specs you could possible wants for around 700.

I think I have the know how to build my own pc, but becoming legally blind the connections are too small for me now:(

If I had found http://www.avadirect.com/ last year I would have bought from them, instead of cyberpowerpc as they are in my state so shipping costs are way lower, but that money is gone so probably will buy from http://www.microcenter.com/ as they are local and have their own repair center
